Chapter 247 Dispelled Concerns
There were no guests in the teahouse at the moment, but for the sake of safety, Li Le pointed to a table in the corner and walked over first.
The wooden table of the Eight Immortals was cleaned very clean, Li Le lifted the corner of his skirt lightly, sat upright at the table, and motioned for the woman to sit opposite her with his eyes.
The woman was a little sluggish in her movements, not at all as bold as she had stopped them in the street. It took a while for her to move slowly to the table.
Shen Sheng glanced at her dissatisfied, but in the end, he didn't speak because of Li Le.
Li Le's scrutinizing gaze followed her, taking the opportunity to carefully observe her every move.
This woman's appearance can be regarded as delicate, and there is a faint melancholy in the middle of her beautiful eyebrows. It may seem like a long experience is unpleasant.
After finding that she finally sat on the stool, in order to relax her mood, Li Le generously reached out and poured a cup of tea for her.
She gently placed the teacup in front of the woman, but the almost silent movement startled the other party slightly.
"Thank you." She whispered, but didn't put the tea in her mouth, just held the cup in both hands, staring intently at somewhere on the table.
Time passed little by little, and she still didn't mean to speak.
Shen Sheng was a little breathless, and just as he was about to speak, Li Le spoke.
"Do you have something to say to me?" Li Le took the lead in breaking the silence between the two and decided to be the leader of that topic.
Hearing this, the woman raised her head suddenly, looked at Li Le with a pair of confused eyes, and after reacting to the current situation, her eyes instantly returned to clarity.
She was silent for a long time before she whispered, "I'm sorry." I...... Not ready to say anything yet. ”
This woman was really preoccupied, she must have been thinking about something else just now, Li Le was even more curious about her, but she still had a gentle smile on her face.
"It's okay, there are no outsiders here now, can you say that?" She urged again.
Looking at each other, the woman's originally clear eyes seemed to ripple in the lake, and she suddenly had a lot of complicated emotions.
At first glance, when Li Le's eyes were calm, she couldn't help but dodge.
Li Le couldn't help frowning slightly, and glanced at her strangely, not knowing what she was thinking.
She had never seen this person before, and it couldn't have been a deliberate arrangement. Then there is only one possibility, does she regret it?
As soon as this thought popped up in Li Le's mind, he could no longer linger, after all, this may be the key person in the theft.
Li Le thought for a moment and said softly, "What concerns do you have?" ”
The woman's eyes wandered, and she reached out and touched her nose unnaturally, but did not answer.
Such subtle movements already said it all, and Li Le became more and more sure in her heart that she must know something.
But perhaps telling the truth also has consequences that she can't afford.
This is the problem, the truth seems to be only a layer of window paper away from her.
Today's trip is bound to be empty-handed, and Li Le is confident that he can keep her safe.
Thinking of this, Li Le decided to provoke her, after all, no matter how much such an indecisive person persuaded her, she always had concerns.
"What the hell do you want to tell me?" Li Le frowned deliberately unhappily after speaking, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he set up a shelf very naturally, "If it's okay, don't delay my time any longer." ”
Sure enough, the woman looked up eagerly, then looked at her cautiously.
Li Le was really impatient.
She pursed her lips unconsciously, stretched out her fingers to brush the broken hair around her ears, and then said apologetically: "I didn't mean to delay your time. ”
After saying this, she swallowed nervously, and after considering the words, she asked a little uneasily, "I actually want to know what you are investigating this matter for?" ”
Her voice trembled a little because of nervousness. This made Li Le feel the pressure in her heart, and her opinion of this woman couldn't help but change a little, and she had a reason to be forgiven for being so cautious.
But there is one thing, she doesn't trust herself, and Li Le doesn't trust her either. Of course, Li Le couldn't tell her the real reason.
She chose a reason that seemed the most superficial.
When a normal person hears that there is such a strange thief, they will definitely want to know more about it.
Li Le decided to portray himself as an ordinary gossiper.
"I've heard about this elsewhere and it feels unusual, you don't have to worry that I just want to know a little bit about it." Li Le smiled slightly, his tone was light, and he tried his best to let the other party put down his worries with a harmless attitude.
But such a simple reason was obviously not enough to reassure her, and the woman was also carefully observing her expression while Li Le spoke.
She didn't see it too clearly on the street just now, but now she found that the woman in front of her was good-looking, very well-dressed, and had an elegant temperament, not like she was colluding with those people, but with a sense of righteousness.
Despite this, the woman still didn't want to say what was on her mind. In addition, she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed that she was so recklessly exposed to the other party's sight.
In case the two people in front of her had ulterior motives, wouldn't she have thrown herself into the net.
When she thought of what happened to her recently, it was as if a huge stone had blocked her heart, making it difficult for her to breathe, and the sorrow between her eyebrows became more and more obvious.
Li Le couldn't help but be a little disappointed when he saw that he couldn't make her speak like this.
At this moment, Shen Sheng, who had been silent beside her, spoke.
"Oh, I said this sister, you have decided to ask us for help, why are you still spitting and spitting?" Shen Sheng pursed his lips, he looked down on the woman's behavior very much, so his tone was not very friendly.
It's obvious that she herself is showing her intentions on the street, but when she comes here, she will only pretend to be dumb.
When someone said this, the woman was obviously a little embarrassed, and opened her mouth, looking like she wanted to say something.
In the end, she looked around the teahouse nervously, and then looked at Li Le fixedly.
Li Le saw that she was finally about to say something valuable, so she relaxed and put on the posture of a listener.
"Then you have to make sure that what you say to me is not leaked out." As she said this, there was a hint of grievance and uneasiness in her tone.
I don't know what happened to her, in this short moment, Li Le went through all kinds of clueless thoughts in his heart.
As soon as he looked up, Li Le found that in an instant, the woman's expression seemed to be much haggard.
"You can say it with peace of mind, and I will do my best." Li Le was still patiently comforted, she needed to finally conquer this person's heart defense.
Seeing this, Shen Sheng also put aside his prejudices and concentrated on preparing to hear the woman's secret.
The woman sighed and said with a sad expression: "That's it, talking to you can also relieve the depression in my heart." ”
As soon as these words came out, Li Le and Shen Sheng both frowned in unison.
All the thought work done for half a day was in vain? Rao is Li Le, no matter how patient he is, he is also a little angry.
But after thinking about it, she said it anyway, and Li Le had no choice but to give up.
But Shen Sheng's side couldn't bear it, his face sank, and he said, "What you said is very meaningless." Do you know who is sitting in front of you? ”
The woman struggled in her mind for a long time, and when she finally decided to tell the truth to the two strangers, she didn't expect that there would be a reversal.
She looked at Shen Sheng suspiciously, and then at Li Le, and couldn't help but have a glimmer of hope in her eyes.
Sure enough, her first reaction when she saw these two people on the street was correct, and she asked expectantly, "I don't know what the identity of the girl is?" ”
Shen Sheng was very satisfied with her performance, he raised his eyebrows and raised his voice slightly: "This is the famous Lanning County Lord!" ”
Li Le glanced at him with some amusement, unable to figure out why he was more proud than himself.
But when the woman heard this, she was obviously stunned.
Shen Sheng thought she didn't believe it, and added: "If it's fake, there is evidence." So don't worry, say it boldly, she will never lie to you. ”
Having said that, there is no reason for the woman to be entangled anymore.
Of course, she had heard of the deeds of the county lord of Lanning, and the young lady of the Li family, who was skilled in medicine and kind, had already been a miraculous existence in her mind.
She also wanted to live as free and easy as Li Le, but she didn't have that life. Nowadays, even living has become a kind of difficulty.
Therefore, when she learned that her idol was in front of her, the woman was immediately excited.
Her eyes shone brightly, and she immediately stood up from the stool.
Li Le didn't expect her to be so excited when she heard her identity. Useful clues were about to appear, and she couldn't help but glance at Shen Sheng and give him an approving look.
The latter curled the corners of his mouth and scratched his head a little embarrassedly.
After the woman got up from the stool, she didn't hesitate at all, and knelt straight down in front of Li Le.
With a plop, Li Le was shocked by her actions, and when she saw the tears that burst out of the woman's eyes in an instant, she was suddenly touched somewhere in her heart.
"You sit down and talk slowly." Li Le also stood up, Lianbu moved lightly to her, bent down and helped her weakly.
But the woman was unmoved, still kneeling straight on the ground, straightening her body, and she couldn't bother to wipe her face with tears on her face.
Shen Sheng glanced at it, handed over a handkerchief, and couldn't bear to persuade: "You better get up quickly, you are too ostentatious like this." It's not good if it's seen by someone with a heart. ”
When the woman heard this, she stopped crying. She nodded to Shen Sheng and said softly, "Thank you." ”
Then she bowed deeply to Li Le, and said earnestly: "The folk girl begs the county lord of Lanning to make the decision for me!" ”
A few more tears ran down her cheeks as she spoke, and they fell to the ground with a clatter.
